Holistic approach based assessment of social efficiency of research conducted by higher educational establishments

Abstract

Social efficiency of research conducted by higher educational establishments contributes a lot to improving the educational process, the quality of training of specialists, and the teaching skills of scientific and pedagogical staff. A holistic approach in the system of assessment of the social efficiency of higher educational establishments' research, which is interpreted by the authors of the article, makes it possible for higher educational establishments to completely adapt to market requirements, to make adequate managerial decisions and obtain relevant results. The system and structural approach was used in the study, which led to functional and effective application of theoretical provisions, scientific principles and conceptual positions for developing the author's version of forming higher educational establishments' holistic approach based model of social efficiency of research. For the assessment of social efficiency of research, a holistic approach based theoretical and analytical model has been suggested, which integrates 4 subsystems: target, provision, regulatory, management subsystem, which can be assessed by parameters, indicators and criteria of social efficiency of research results. The authors have suggested a system of criteria of social efficiency of research results. On the basis of the elaborated system of criteria assessment of social efficiency of research results of higher educational establishments, the authors have constructed a structural and logical scheme of social efficiency of research results assessment, which shows that on each stage of social efficiency of research results development by means of comparison of the market needs and opportunities of higher educational establishments and rational distribution of endowment funds it is possible to achieve maximization of the social efficiency of research results generalized criterion value. A formal description of the main components of the constructed theoretical-analytical model of the social efficiency of research has been made by means of using the economic and mathematical model and the dependence of its components has been analyzed.
